The product, in the report: Glow Stick 15 bracelets with 15 connectors
This incident involved the thin glow sticks (“Glow Bracelets”), which come in black tubes of 15 glowsticks ($1 per package). My 7-1/2 year-old was bending the sticks to activate the lighting, as per instructions and as we had done with 45 other sticks in recent weeks, when a stick cracked open, causing the fluorescent material to spray on her face and into her eyes. I was able to immediately take her to the sink and rinse her eyes, but she continued to cry hysterically that her eyes were burning. A call to Poison Control assured us that the material was not toxic, but to watch for low-probability eye infection in the next few days. She was in significant pain for about 25 minutes. Thankfully, a bath and additional rinsing were able to make her eyes “just feel a little bit of stinging.”

The product, in the report: Glow Stick Wand
I bought the Glow Stick Wand at Target. It is listed for ages 3+. The handle of the wand has an opening at the bottom. My nephew stuck his finger in the opening and it got jammed in there. We had to pour oil on it to yank it out. His finger was blue when we pulled it out. He was completely traumatized. It is very easy for a child to get their finger stuck inside the wand. The item is dangerous and should be removed from shelves.
